From the moment we walked in the door we were amazed at how lovely this hotel was. We were greeted by our hosts who were so friendly and helpful and showed us to our room. We had one of the two attic rooms. The room was immaculate, well decorated and so clean. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom again was really clean and fresh and my husband who rates rooms by their showers was really happy. There was tea and coffee as would be expected but biscuits and a very scrummy chocolate marshmallow was also provided. Bottled water too ( we usually take our own so this was good to know for future reference). The room also had its own ironing board and iron and also hairdryer. We also noted a fan should the weather be hot. For breaksfast (which was included) there was a choice of pastries, yoghurts,cereals, fruit as well as traditional breakfasts. The traditional cooked breakfast was delicious. My husband had this and I had the vegetarian option which was equally delicious. We can't praise our hosts enough. The whole stay (albeit only one night as we were seeing a show and didnt want to drive home late at night) was brilliant and we will definitely be staying there again and will definitely recomend it to our friends and family. Thank you for a lovely stay.

This is one of the nicest places that we have stayed at in Eastbourne. Loved the beautiful room and amazing breakfast. An absolute treat for our last day before returning back home to Canada. Owners are so lovely and helpful. Would definitely stay again. Thank you.

Beautiful accommodation. Easily walkable to everywhere with the bonus of parking. Fantastic, big room (10). Lovely decor very large comfy bed. Lovely toiletries. And obviously, the free standing bath to relax in. Breakfast was really good. Cooked too perfection. Best poached eggs ever. Thank you both, there's nothing negative to say. We would absolutely recommend it.

A Warm Welcome

Contact with the hotel prior to our stay was helpful, resolving an issue. We received a warm welcome on arrival and were helped with our luggage. Our room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The breakfast menu had a good variety and breakfast was nicely cooked. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay and would certainly return.

10/10 Exceptional

When you see reviews that say 10/10 Exceptional, half of you doesn't quite believe, the sceptic in me certainly didn't. But I was blown away by this hotel. Chris and Caroline were exceptionally friendly, the Hawkstone beer was a treat and breakfast was superb. The hotel was immaculate and Ideally located for town. Perfect. My only disappointment was that they are fully booked for when I return in September.

We had a fantastic stay at Ravilious – Chris and Caroline are warm, welcoming and helpful hosts. It was the perfect base for exploring Eastbourne and the surrounding countryside. Our room was spotlessly clean, stylish, and very comfortable. Breakfasts were outstanding with so much choice, including vegetarian options, and all beautifully prepared and delicious. We also really appreciated the local restaurant recommendations, which were spot on. We would highly recommend a stay here and hope to visit again soon.

We had a truly wonderful stay at this charming, family-owned hotel in Eastbourne. From the moment we arrived, the owners made us feel incredibly welcome — they are warm, kind, and absolute masters of hospitality. It's clear they truly belong in this industry. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, and their passion for providing a great guest experience shines through. The highlight of each day was the breakfast — it was nothing short of professional-level quality. Beautifully prepared, delicious, and served with care. You can tell they take great pride in what they do. If you're looking for a place that feels like a home away from home, with top-tier service and genuine heart, this is it. Highly recommend! P.s. don’t forget to check out the dome at the backyard

Cannot say enough good things about Ravilious, Definitely one of the best smaller properties we have had the pleasure to stay in! (And we travel a lot) The hosts are fantastic & friendly with great knowledge of the local area. Breakfast is a real treat and do delicious with great choices. The Bar is excellent too and Chris makes the BEST cocktails. The Building itself it beautifully and the inside has been really well designed and decorated. If you are in Eastbourne this is the place to stay. a real treat.
